Puppet Show Lyrics

I know I let you in, I just swung the door out wide

Then I gave you your very own tour of the places that I'd hide

I told the truth to you

The grit and the dirt

But you dragged that mud around and you know how that hurt

And I've turned it over now

You know that I've climbed every branch

But I can't find a way through where I ever stood a chance, against you

You had your puppet show and I'd admire each display

I thought the way we'd pull and push was just the way that we'd play

I let your words be my drug

I let them heat my veins

Now it's hard to understand

Why I'd tend to those flames

And I've turned it over now

You know that I've climbed every branch

But I can't find a way through where I ever stood a chance

And your voice was quicksand

And I was in waist deep

We had all these moments that I wanted to frame up and keep

Your way seemed timeless

Gentle and unique

It just disarmed me though

Left me feeling weak

And I've turned it over now

You know that I've climbed every branch

But I can't find a way through where I ever stood a chance

And I've turned it over now

You know that I've climbed every branch

But I can't find a way through where I ever stood a chance

And I've turned it over now

You know that I've climbed every branch

But I can't find a way through where I ever stood a chance

And I've turned it over now

You know that I've climbed every branch

But I can't find a way through where I ever stood a chance, against you.
